New features

  • Community Roles project brings in better defined roles for every person in the database. This includes, for example, links to resources they're maintaining, or termination reason, along with enablement time period.
  • Single Instructor Badge is a migration project, making changes to AMY to drop support for Instructor Badges from various Carpentries; instead, a single Badge will exist for all instructors.
  • Instructor Selection is a project most important for the end users (instructors). It implements a list of workshops looking for instructors. This will make the spreadsheet where instructors sign up for workshops deprecated.
